Title: Control of cyclone burner
Inventor: LJUNGDAHL BOO
IPC: F23D1/00
Filed: 2003-05-21
Abstract: A method of operating a combustion process in a cyclone burner, after start-up thereof, is provided. A fuel and a combustion gas is fed into a combustion chamber of the cyclone burner. The velocity of the combustion gas is kept between a lower and an upper limiting gas velocity. The stoichiometric condition (sub- or over-stoichiometric) is maintained by controlling the amount of fed oxygen to the amount of fed fuel. A shift is made to the other stoichiometric condition while preventing the combustion gas from obtaining a velocity outside the range defined by the lower and upper limiting gas velocity.

Abstract: In a refrigerating apparatus in which a plurality of application-side heat
exchangers  (41, 45, 51)  are connected to a heat-source side heat exchanger  (4) ,
liquid lines for a plurality of channels in a refrigerant circuit  (1E)  share a liquid side
communication pipe  (11)  in order to reduce the number of pipes. Further, the liquid
side communication pipe  (11)  is provided adjacent to a low-pressure gas side
communication pipe  (15)  for at least one channel so as to contact it in order to
supercool a liquid refrigerant by a low-pressure gas refrigerant. Thus, workability
for connecting the pipes is improved and a refrigerating ability may not be decreased
even if communication pipes  (11, 15, 17)  become long.

Abstract: A received low-frequency standard radio wave, which is an amplitude modulation signal, is converted to an intermediate frequency signal Sa, and is output to a detection circuit and an AGC circuit. The detection circuit and AGC circuit generates an RF control signal Sf1 and IF control signal Sf2 from the input intermediate frequency signal Sa, and controls an RF control circuit and IF control circuit by outputting the generated RF control signal Sf1 and IF control signal Sf2 to the RF control circuit and IF control circuit. By this a radio wave reception device can speed up AGC operation.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil devant permettre à un train de tiges à marteau de fond de trou coincé en un endroit de continuer à tourner au-dessus du point d'arrêt. L'appareil permet la mise en oeuvre d'un procédé par lequel le sous-ensemble se rentre partiellement en diminuant son diamètre extérieur. En même temps que le sous-ensemble se rentre partiellement, on produit un effet de battage depuis l'intérieur du train de tiges de façon à libérer de l'emprise les segments bloqués. En même temps également, le fluide de forage à l'intérieur du train de tiges est mis à circuler à l'extérieur de la tige en passant par une réduction à circulation. Le fluide est forcé à circuler autour du sous-ensemble bloqué, ce qui augmente d'autant l'éventualité du déblocage du sous-ensemble.
